Medical Assistant

The women at the front desk in charge of filing charts/scheduling patients at any Dr's office you've ever been too. Far far less responsibilities and educational requirements than a nurse. Often reprimanded by Dr.'s and supervisor's due to their aloof bird like work habits most often due to their foremost concerns of: hair, chewing gum, eating, free Lunch's/Dunkin Donuts from drug reps, eating, reality tv, gawdy clothing, makeup, tabloids, tattoos and eating. Large percentage have train wrecks of personal lives as well, ie out of wedlock children.

Dr: I'm missing Mrs. Smiths' chart again!

Medical Assistant: We by accidentally sent that to another office. We mixed up the charts. I'm on lunch.

Dr: You have to pay more attention this is just as unacceptable as the last 5 times you did this.

Medical Assistant: Why you getting an attitude with me?

or

Patient: What do you mean you can't find my chart? Aren't these things just filed alphabetically?!!

Medical Assistant: I don't like you tone with me, and besides we are very busy here right now please hold. To other MA's: Did anyone see Dancing with the Stars last night?

Fleg

The word 'flag' as pronounced by people with thick Belfast accents. The term is a perfect encapsulation of the disproportionate and overblown reaction to the removal of the Union Jack (as in 'de fleg') from above City Hall in Belfast. Where previously it had flown for 365 days per year, it is now flown on 17 designated days of the year - in line with many other British cities.

The event caused a portion of the Protestant community ('fleggers') to make international pricks of themselves as they proceeded to wreck the fucking place, claiming it was another erosion of a 'British' identity they perceive to have been under attack since the horrifying spectre of equality reared its head in Northern Ireland.

The word 'fleg' - and indeed 'fleggers' - fittingly describes a section of humanity unconcerned with knowledge, reality or the vagaries of the English language. Like America's tea-baggers they are ruled by instinct, fear and paranoia with a side dish of rampant bigotry and startling ignorance of the world around them.

"Wat de fuck like! The taigs got de fleg took down! Let's wreck de fuckin place! No surrender!"

"De fleg has been took down! Before ye know it there'll be a united Ireland! Attack Short Strand! God Save The Queen!"

Skeef

To take something small, that doesn't quite qualify as a theft. Probably from the Danish "skæv" or the Dutch "scheef", both of which are pronounced similarly, meaning "askew, or not quite right'. To change an item's ownership without permission, but only something small and of little worth.

"I skeefed an apple off the neighbor's tree." "I skeefed some chips outta your bag when you looked away." "Don't skeef my chair when I go to the bathroom."

Hair spider

A tight, tangled knot of loose hair and lint that forms inside clothing during the clothes dryer cycle. It typically hides inside garments, causing an annoying lump or a phantom tickling sensation against the skin until it is found or falls out onto the floor during folding.
